Default Can't get in car!

Ok heres the deal. My friend thought it would be cool to shave his handles, keyholes and any possible way in to the car. He has poppers set up to get in his doors. Now heres the problem

His car is currently garaged while there is snow all over the place and his battery died while it was in there. So now its sitting in the garage dead and theres no way to get in. So if you cant pop the doors, hood or trunk what else is there to do besides busting a window?

Its a 94 dx foor door. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

pop the hood and recharge the battery. there is a cable going underneath the bumper to the hoodlatch. figure it out.

BTW shaved door handles are gay.

Step 1: undo the bolts holding the bottom of the bumper to the car. Also remove the screws where the bumper meets the fenders.

Step 2: grab a long screwdriver, slide under the front bumper, pry that bitch back as far as you need to in order to see the bottom of the hood latch mechanism.

Step 3: poke around until you trigger the latch via either moving the cable around or hitting the hinged stopper itself.

Step 4: replace battery.

Step 5: kick friend's *** for being a stupid chump with bad taste.

Step 6: drink beer.
